Ignoring user mentions

When you quote or reply to a comment, all mentions to users will get a notification.

Since version 6.8.0, you can change settings and ignore user mentions. For instance, if someone mentions you with the username [~username], it will be replaced with their Display Name.

This will prevent replies and quotes from sending email notifications unless a new user mention is added to the comment.

 

Ignore only mentions of the current user
